After exiting the cement kiln, the clinker is cooled and stored. To produce cement, clinker is mixed with a small amount of gypsum and other additives, such as pozzolans or slag. This mixture is then ground in the cement ball mill. The grinding process involves passing the clinker and additives through the rotating drum of the ball …
Cement Ball Mill Structure. When Ball Mill is working, raw material enters the mill cylinder through the hollow shaft of the feed. The inside of the cylinder is filled with grinding media of various diameters (steel balls, steel segments, etc.); when the cylinder rotates around the horizontal axis at a certain speed, Under the action of ...

Module 4: Cement Grinding Systems and Dispatch. Cement clinker is grinding in roller mills and ball mills, such as granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, limestone, and approximately 5% sulfate agents (e.g., gypsum). During production and before leaving the plant, the cement is internally inspected and tested in the plant's laboratories.
The power ingesting of a grinding process is 50-60% in the cement production power consumption. The Vertical Roller Mill (VRM) reduces the power consumption for cement grinding approximately 30-40% associated with other grinding mills. The process variables in cement grinding process using VRM are strongly nonlinear and having …
The final manufacturing stage at a cement plant is the grinding of cement clinker from the kiln, mixed with 4-5% gypsum and possible additives, into the final product, cement . In a modern cement plant the total consumption of electrical energy is about 100 kWh/t . The cement grinding process accounts for approx. 40% if this energy consumption.
In another word, the cement grinding mill can increase the cement quality and guarantee the qualification rate of cement. In general, cement mill can both apply for dry cement production and wet cement production. Commonly, there are three hot types of cement mill in the cement industry: cement ball mill, Raymond mill, and vertical cement mill.
Zhang et al. (2020) controlled the cement combined grinding mill, consisting of a roller press, cyclone, separator and ball mill. The input variable was the ball mill's current, and the controlled variable was the circulating fan's rotating speed. Data were collected every 10 seconds, which reduced the impact of time delay.
